"Resistance loves it when we “rehearse” and “prepare.” It knows the more we plot out our magnum opus, the less chance that we’ll actually work on it.
I have a mantra:
Start before you’re ready.
The idea is to outfox our fear-brain by stealing a march on it.
Don’t research. Don’t plan. Begin!"
Gall’s law says: “A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked. A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work. You have to start over with a working simple system.”

The future is uncertain, and yet we must act!

#smallstories I have a dear friend who died this past winter. He and his partner were the best market gardeners I have ever known. The last time I saw Bruce, he and Carol brought us a bag of peaches from their trees. They were glorious, but were ripening too fast so I vacuum-sealed and froze some of them. Now that he is gone, when I open up the freezer there he is. I know he wouldn't want me to waste them, but I am loath to thaw his memory to eat.
“You must not talk about the future. The future is a con. The tarot is a language that talks about the present. If you use it to see the future, you become a conman.”
